With Amazon’s October Prime Day starting in less than two weeks, we’re already seeing discounts on popular items, including Amazon devices like the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet, currently down to just $60 on Amazon. Regularly priced at $130, you can save $70. This is one of the lower prices we’ve seen, just $5 more than the low price point back in July during Amazon’s big Prime Day event. Plus, this offer is valid for Prime and non-Prime members alike.
The Amazon Fire HD 8-inch tablet features an 8-inch screen, 13 hours of battery life, and access to tons of books, music, games and other content. You can also stream video seamlessly with 2GB of RAM Plus it features Alexa-enabled video calling and more. Released in 2022, it isn’t as big as the latest Fire HD 10 or Fire Max 11 but the 8-inch screen makes it a manageable size, especially for travel.
